Prohibits health facilities from granting immigration officers access to premises without a judicial warrant, so less immigration enforcement in health facilities.
A health facility may not grant a federal immigration officer or peace officer engaged in immigration-related investigation or enforcement duties access to the premises of the facility without a judicial warrant.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds a new chapter to the Health and Safety Code that limits health facilities' ability to cooperate with federal immigration officers by requiring a judicial warrant for access, which restricts immigration enforcement.
